An actual test for me regarding a putter is when I review/play with it on many golf courses and conditions.
During my review period, I had the chance to put it to the test at Rideauview Golf Club just outside of Ottawa, where I've worked for the last few years. The maintenance staff keeps the bent grass greens in mint shape, and they always look and play great. The SeeMore Giant M1t performed like I knew it would and had very positive results. Now, this could have a lot to do with understanding the contours and breaks of the greens so well, but that's why my reviews always encompass many different golf courses.
I also had the chance to play at Mont Tremblant, Quebec, at a couple of their resort courses in the Fall. Le Géant and Le Diable. At Le Géant, I had great Fall conditions on a very picturesque hilly course. Both courses had tricky greens, especially on the second day, which rained for the whole round at Le Diable. On a great weekend at Mont Tremblant, the Seemore M1t exceeded expectations on the bent grass greens.
Then, in October, I enjoyed playing golf on a guy's golf trip in Dallas, Texas. We had a blast and mostly had Bermuda grass greens to putt on, which, for Canadians who play up North, is definitely out of our golfing element. From the perfect contoured greens at Old American to the subtle greens at Heritage Ranch, the SeeMore Giant M1t performed beautifully. Even though some aspects of my game were off, the SeeMore made some putts and instilled confidence while on the greens.
Looks
The compact size and black finish of the M1t get top marks in my review.
The copper weights make the head weight ideal for a smooth stroke.
Feel
For both long and short putts, I felt the feel of the Giant M1t was ideal, and the combination of the Rosemark putter grip was a great combination. I tested it on many different golf courses in all types of weather conditions and types of grass, and it performed beautifully. I also like the fact that you can purchase heavier weights for the putter if you want a heavier head weight.
Cost
USD 295
Customization
One of the many things I like about the SeeMore Putter Company is the many options(grip, extra weights, headcovers, length, lie, etc.) you can get for your putter. Obviously, most cost more cash, but they're well worth it when it comes to the look and feel of your putter.
Rosemark Grip Review
One of the many customization options you can get on your SeeMore putter is the grip, and I can't stress enough how great the Rosemark grips are; I got the Rosemark Grip - Original Black 1.52 - MID grip installed on my Giant M1t.
Rosemark putter grips are the grips that World #1 Lydia Ko uses. The feel makes this grip great and connects you perfectly to the putter.
Rosemark offers “tension-free putting” for all golfers due to the unique patented shape, which perfectly “maps” the golfer’s hand.

Also from SeeMore's site, below:
Introducing the Giant milled m1t. This Giant m1t provides a more classic heel-toe shape to appeal to a broader range of personal preferences regarding confidence at setup. It is more forgiving, with a higher moment of inertia, and has extreme heel/toe weighting, with milled copper sole weights.
All Putter Models Have SeeMore's Patented RifleScope Technology (RST) Alignment System For A True Reference Point For Perfect Alignment And setup on every putt. This putter is face balanced at impact or “balanced to the plane,” meaning it's dynamically balanced to the angle you putt and naturally returns to square at impact—less manipulation during the stroke to keep the putter face on the correct path.
Face Balanced At Impact
This putter incorporates the dynamic benefit of “Face Balanced at IMPACT,” also called “square to plane” or “balanced to plane.” Putters in this category consist of blades and small mallets hosting a straight center shaft or near-center shaft design. They help the golfer develop an improved putting stroke and can continually improve with guidance from a SPi instructor or SeeMore tech manual or video. SeeMore’s optimal designs are Face Balance at IMPACT putters.
